Paul A.M Van Lange serves as Professor of Psychology at VU Amsterdam and Distinguished Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, specializing in trust, human cooperation, economic games, and social neuroscience. He actively advises policymakers and professionals on resolving trust and conflict issues in management and public policy through evidence-based workshops and consultations.
His research spans critical societal challenges including climate change mitigation, corruption dynamics, refugee integration crises, and gender disparities in sports. He pioneers psychological frameworks for translating abstract threats like climate change into actionable public strategies, emphasizing cooperative behavior across diverse cultural contexts. This work bridges experimental economics with real-world policy implementation.
Recent publications demonstrate his focus on making psychological insights accessible for global problem-solving, particularly through interdisciplinary lenses connecting neuroscience with environmental policy. His 2019 article exemplifies this approach by proposing cognitive interventions to concretize climate threats.
